THE prettiest story of unassuming
maidenhood ever told is related of
Miss Nellie Arthur, the daughter of
the late President Arthur. She was
at Mrs Lockwood's school, and had
been there year when one day she
was missed by her little chums, who
crowded around the principal after
the opening exercises to ask where
she had gone.
Where's Nell?" they said.
"Why, don't you know" said the
lady. "Her father, Gen. Arthur, died
last night"
WAS her father Gen. Arthur all
asked as with one voice; ''was she the
Presidents daughter?"
Miss Nellie had never limited at
what most girls would have told be-
fore anything else.

ONE of the most interesting incl
dents of the late war is told of Gen
Lytle. Just before he received his
fatal wound at Chicamauga He had
made his brilliant charge into the
midst of the enemy where all chances
of retreat were cut off Suddenly he
thrust his hand into his coat pocket,
drew forth pair of kid gloves and
began putting them on. Asked by an
aid the reason for this movement, so
unexpected under such thrilling cir
cumstances, the General answered:
Don't you see we are surrounded
and that there are but two alternatives
left us-to die or to surrender? For
my part / propose to die like gen
tleman." He drew on his gloves and
soon after fell. Those who knew Gen.
Lytle in Cincinnati knew him to be
most punctilious about the appoint
ments of gentleman, but no one
ever supposed him capable of such
incompatible GOODNESS.

THE keynote of the Presidents re-
commentator is the concise but
pregnant statement that the problem
that confronts us is condition, not
II theory.
The great and growing surplus is a
financial peril and menace to trade
and manufactures. 1t cannot be al
lowed to continue to accumulate, as
it does under existing laws, without
financial panic and industrial collapse.
The expedients to which the Execu-
tive can resort under the statutes now
in force are well nigh exhausted.
Legislation is imperative. What shall
that legislation be? There are two
theories about it, The Democratic
theory Is to cut off taxes and leave the
money in the pockets of the people,
while cheapening the things they
saSss ca, wear 8G9 use in their en-

In speaking of the probable effects
OF the presidents message, the Dallas
(Texas) News says: President Clev-
Gland has absorbed all that part of
the American heart over which he
has not hitherto exercised sovereignty
by limiting his message to 5000 words.
The acreage of wheat in this country
will be greater next year. Many men
have year after year been prevented
from putting in full crops because
they did not have time to read the
message and SOW their wheat.

SAYS the New York Herald: When
Mr.. Cleveland quietly suggests that
stockings for the poor mans family
and a winter overcoat for the poor
man himself are very much more i'm
portant necessaries of life, and should
be cheapened, Blaine gives a convul-
sive scream and declares that free
"chaw" is all he can grant, and his
big heart almost bursts at the thought
of giving that much.
